The IAA will feature World Premieres of the X3,6er Gran Turismo and of the course the all new BMW M5. There will be other surprises that will be announced shortly including one from BMWi but also the X7 in Conceptual form.

The BMW brands of MINI and Rolls-Royce will also be in attendance with some exciting new products and ideas.

Hoping one of those surprises will be the production 8 series, but something tells me that won't come until later.

I will let you know next week
Jas can you say if the roof takes all the pace where the rear seats are when it's down, but when up the rear seats are still usable- assuming they and the belts are fitted?

This is a deal breaker for me as can't justify a large spend on a car that I can't get my wife and son into for family weekend trips.

Steve, really sorry but we all had to sign an NDA and cannot talk about what we saw

I really wish we could tell all

Your current i8 suits your needs perfectly though.

Scott, we're all breathlessly awaiting the 300,000 word press release, with every photo explained in excruciating detail in a 5,000 word caption.
